that is a very common case, an static overlay in front an application.
The right solution is to use
the try_files directive <http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpCoreModule#try_files>

try something like:

location = / {
root /var/www/aya/htdocs/html/;
try_files $uri $uri/index.html @proxy;
}

location @proxy {
proxy_pass http://aya;
include proxy.conf;
}
